Valentine's Day Inspiration

As I was looking on Pinterest one day I was totally inspired!
Normally I really don't do much for any other occasion other that Christmas, I Love Christmas!

There was a ton of "Picked For You" posts for Valentine Cards. I totally went to town and did a bunch of cards, of coarse I CASed them for the pics that I saw. I changed a few things whether it be the colors, a different product or added a little something. For the most part they are very much the same. I don't want to take anything away for the original so I will link it so you can see it too :)  I guess it could already have been a CAS so the link will be to the card I used as my inspiration to doing my versions of each card. 


For the first card with the star, the original was in another language so it could have originally been an Anniversary, Wedding or Valentine's Day Card. I really liked it and being as it is a very simple and easy card to do, loved it as a Valentine Card. See the Original Card now.

I guess what really drew me to all the cards is that they are all so simply beautiful!
As is the second card I did. The layout is the same but I used the newest heart punch and embossed them with glittery embossing powder. It is possible that it is a slightly different color as well, I used Real Red in my version of the card. See the Original Card now.

Card #4 Original seen HERE



This little cutie with the turtle on it is mine :)  I saw the little stamp in my collection and thought I would do this cute little card. I wasn't sure about it but it was the one that was taken first so I guess it wasn't to bad lol ;)
The card with the 2 hearts just has a color variation from the Original Card. I like the bright colors and lots of colors. I like to have more than one color so I changed it up a bit, Original seen Here 



I really liked the idea of this one but I changed a few things and added some little hearts. The more I see this one, the more I like it :)  See the Original HERE



I had a blast making all these cards and I hope you enjoy doing the same thing I did. I would be honored to have someone get inspired for something I did or from the ones I got inspired from.

Fancy Fold Card

I'm not sure what to call this card as the one I found wasn't in English! I was surfing on Pinterest one day and found an amazing card!! Of coarse I re-pinned it for later cause I had to give it a try myself. The only problem is, its in another language and the measurements are in cm instead of inches. I really wanted to try the card so I printed out her template and tried to convert cm to inches. I made a card with my dimensions and I am fairly pleased with it.   I tried to go fairly simple on the front as the inside is a little bulky. I used a Mojo Monday sketch for the inspiration on for front of the card.  Sketch 319     For the inside I pretty much used her layout but just used different paper.  I am in the Holiday spirit so really wanted it to be a Christmas card.  I haven't used the specialty paper in the Winter Frost Specialty DSP yet so thought it would work perfectly.   She had a template designed, but of coa...

Another Ultimate Pop Up Card

AKA Explosion Pop Up Card You may have to search multiple names for this style of card to find all the cards that others have made & posted. There are likely lots of instructions and video tutorials but I have made one for myself and posted it to the Card Instructions & Printables tab of my blog. Originally I watched the video done by Sam of Mixed Up Craft   and found it extremely easy to follow. However... I don't remember &%$@ so like to have a printable version of the cards I really like to make so I can do them again. I tend to forget sometimes where I originally seen something.       I will have everything I used in the Product List buy thought I'd just tell you that the only thing I used from the Magnolia Memory Dies is the pretty border die. Don't go looking to see anything else from that set cause that was it. Just need a little something to decorate the top.      Also the "Happy Birthday sentiment is from the Magno...
